[Get a plan](https://wearabledocs.com/cart?seats=1) [Our security overview](https://wearabledocs.com/security) ## Layer by layer Each layer guards against a different risk, so no single lock is doing all the work. **On the way** Every connection uses HTTPS with modern TLS. Older, weaker protocols are refused. **While stored** Your record, your signed documents and your pages are encrypted at rest with AES-256. **Your vault, twice** Vault files are encrypted by our own code with AES-256-GCM before they are stored, then encrypted again at rest. **In every backup** Off-site backups are encrypted before they leave, and the backup provider cannot read them. **Passwords** Passwords are salted and hashed 100,000 times. We never store them and cannot read them. **Keys kept apart** Encryption keys live in a separate secret store, never beside the data they protect. ## How the layers fit together Your document sits inside every layer at once. **On your device** Your connection is encrypted before anything leaves your phone or computer. **In our app** Vault files are encrypted by our own code, with a key only the app holds. **In storage** Everything written to disk is encrypted by the storage itself. **In backup** A second copy is kept with another provider, already encrypted, with a key that provider never sees. **At sign-in** You are signed out after 30 minutes idle, and sign-in cookies only work on our site. **Share links, fingerprinted** The links you share are stored only as fingerprints, so even a copy of our database could not open them. ## Strong by default **AES-256** ### Everything stored Your record, your documents, your vault and every backup. **100,000** ### Hashing rounds Salted and hashed, so we never store your password and cannot read it. **2** ### Vault layers Encrypted by our own code, then again by the storage it sits in. ## Your documents, locked down Every plan gets the same protection, from the first document you upload.
